I have a 10 year old boy who is ADHD. I signed him up for one week at the Chattahoochee Nature Center, but I'm looking for some other summer camps to sign him up. I'm looking for camps that are $250/week or less.
I live on the edge of Alpharetta (take Birmingham Hwy away from Crabapple then left on New Bullpen) and there are lots of horse camps up here. They keep the kids busy and exhausted! If you would like a contact, just email me and I'll call a friend and get more info.
Best wishes!

Camp-All American at Perimeter Church in Duluth is fantastic!! They have several different camp options and many sport selections. The church has 100 acres with fields, pools, and outdoor adventure area complete with climbing walls and zip-lines. The church is located on Old Alabama and Hwy 141. website is www.perimeter.org/camp
I hope you live close enough to consider this camp.

I found this a few weeks ago and it sounds pretty interesting. I had heard about it before but didn't know anything about it. It's the SummerBlast at Southern Polytechnics.
My daughter is Dylexia/ADD and ADHD depending on the doctor when she was little she was on all kinds of meds plus a Bee pin for Bee Stings she was on alot of meds when little and today only on Addrell XR plus migraine meds. The best place we found that were good with the kids and have first Aide experience and it is also near Northside Hospital, Northside location at Northpoint Parkway and Old Milton in ALpharetta is the YMCA. They have great programs and are located behind the Staybridge Suites on Northpoint Parkway at the next light up North and turn to the right and they are at the end of the street. They have a great facility and very reasonable. The will also help you if you are a single parent with a special needs child. Its the YMCA at Northpoint Parkway Alpharetta. My daughter had a great time and they owen all that land behind there and have all kinds of activity inside and out. Check it out.

Have you tried Atlanta Parent for camp ideas? I'm sure you will find some on there near you.

It doesn't appear that they are fully updated for 2008, but you could call and find out the 2008 dates and rates if you are interested in one.

For the past 2 Years we have had our children at Camp Primrose at Primrose School of Roswell. They have fun field trips, visitors and theme related activities. My kids are begging to go back this year. Flexibility of the camp is a huge benefit! They have GROWN UP'S FOR CAMP COUNSELORS, I find that refreshing. I have peace of mind knowing my kids are in a safe environment. (Not really into them being around pools and lakes without my husband or I around!)
THere is the Cherokee Outdoor Camp. They have before and after camp care. Lots of activities and very reasonably priced. It may be a little far for you. It is off Bells Ferry Rd on Lake Allatoona. Good Luck - It was always so hard finding summer care!
High Meadows Camp is one of the best day camps in Georgia, and it's very close the the CNC. Lots and LOTS of outdoor activities and nature-based activities. (The older kids learn archery, pioneering, Indian lore and things like that). Unfortunately, it usually fills up the first week they start accepting applications, but it depends on the age. (I'm on the waiting list for my preschooler - and I applied back in January!) But DEFINITLEY put it on the list for next year!
For this year, there are some YMCA camps, and check this website:http://www.atlantaparent.com/camps-online/
